Ioannovskii BridgeIoannovskii Bridge
13.07.11Saint-PetersburgВалерий-1

Ioannovskii Bridge is a bridge you can’t skip while visiting Petropavlovskaya fortress, so it’s rather formal and significant sight, but I was attracted by the eagles on the bridge. The eagles were mounted on the bridge lanterns in 2003, some lanterns have helmets on top of them, which look like the Kaiser Germany helmets at the times of First World... More

There are three men of different ages wearing nothing but budenovka (spiked helmet) on one of them. Not much clear –do gays imitate Red Army men, or Red Army men have lost shame at all? More

06.12.10Saint-PetersburgНадежда*

The greenhouse in Tavrichesky Garden was opened in 1978 and still has the same look. It is a green oasis right in the city center: for years Saint Petersburg citizens warmed their souls here admiring the flower bouquets and tropical plants. Sitting on the bench under a palm tree and watching an illuminated fountain with ikebana are good raising spirit... More

Handsome men by Kuznechny marketHandsome men by Kuznechny market
18.08.10Saint-PetersburgТатьяна

There are two figures of unbelievably handsome men at the entrance to Kuznechny market — that of the peasant and that of the worker. They are well-dressed and holding the instruments of labour. For ladies it should be pleasant to see how neat and clean they are and for misters it should be good to adopt their style. More

The mom walks with her little child in the court of honor of the medical-social examination bureau. Probably in such a way child will no irritate with his cries the clients waiting in the line))) Or mother just shows her child the world. More

11.07.11Saint-PetersburgАлексей

The fortress on the way “from Varangians to Greeks” had been a deadly prison with no way out in czarism times then during Leningrad defence it was an outpost, now it’s a museum. This place at the waterhead of Neva river and Saint-Petersburg has a very great history. There would be no Petersburg if Peter I didn’t seize the fortress, which became... More

In Petropavlovskaya fortress stands a scaffold with a severe note “Don’t climb up the scaffold”. One would think, who could want to climb up the scaffold? But Russians just have to climb high and low. More

Dedicated to all the paparazzi ? By the way, somebody has expressed his attitude to this stencil: you can see the trace of one’s boot on the picture. More

The city center is full of attractions but the outskirts could also boast several margins hide plenty of curious things: for example, this yard on Dybenko street. A local handyman decorated the yard with different chandeliers made of plastic. It is definitely worth seeing!   More

Interesting places in St Petersburg.

 

What are the interesting places in St. Petersburg? Of course, those we see on the official tours. On such tours we expect palaces, monumental, and much historical information. This is wonderful! But the tour is over, you are walking in the street of the city, go on a whim ... and accidentally turn to the street, where you see something you did not expect to see. An unusual monument or something else not less amazing. And this interesting place in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Arkhangelsk or other city you will remember, because you have just opened it!

 

The interesting places of St. Petersburg - unusual monuments, interesting signs, graffiti, who knows what else - all of them are usually hidden, where they are not expected to see. For our pleasure to open them.
